SARAH PALIN :Good news,BUT shortterm block seeing CLIMATE TURBULENCE....[DEC 6!]

yo | 04.09.2008 18:52 | Climate Chaos | Globalisation | Other Press | London | World

seeing as the G.O.P were ALMOST certain to pick a member of their party for the vice presidential slot, the most critical of "yellow, lefty websites" ( her campaign colours are red ) has to admit that there are possibly at least a FEW good things about her role in the upcoming debate, campaign . . . . (ETC !) . . . . BUT she REALLY has to wise up about climate turbulences causes - yes, oil, people, etc - as she gets a bit critical of the cash laundries, speculators loopholes, etc of the ACTUAL "ol'boys network" (women too) that she is - with good reason - proud of having stood up against in her home state. Some of them might say they are doing her favours. Others might offer her pre-written speeches. . . .
. . . . but as the dems are about to step up, at a time when the world needs the USA to clean out its cold-war profiteer criminals, ex-covert ops snake-oil charmers etc, at least her ACTUAL record has a certain interest.

( BUT IT SEEMS ALL THE MORE CRUCIAL TO GET PEOPLE TO SORT COACHES< PUBLICITY ETC OUT FOR THE GLOBAL CLIMATE DAY OF ACTION - - - - DEC 6. ( next london meeting, sept 23rd, see prior newswires refence, or websites www.globalclimatecampaign.org or www.campaigncc.org
. . . . critical engagement is most useful. . . . but it is crucial ! cheers )

SARAH PALIN
BLAH BLAH HOCKEY MUM BLAH BLAH SHOOTS THINGS.
But there IS bit more to the tale.
Explains why the ACTUAL "establishment" types have TRIED to use "lefty" seeming outlets to slag her off a lot, or tried to diminish her actual effect through faint praise (dont-mention-the-Sorting-out-the-dodgy-dealers-in-her-party- bit) or distraction in their more usual outlets.
In her speech, she talks about how she

"took on the old "politics as usual" types, stood up to the "special interests", the lobbyists, big oil corporations, the "good ol'boys network"" . . . etc

Yes, I was suspicious too . . . . but looking at old local paper reports from years back ( eg the Daily News's "Fresh Face" two-parter ) - she actually means it.
Worth spending a few minutes to actually check it out - most of the useful stuff is halfway through it ) seeing as it was prior to a totally different campaign when all THIS malarkey wasnt in peoples DREAMS.
She had the guts to step back from her "own" lot THEN, when there WERE a lot of dodgy deals going on that she hadnt seen when she got into it all - in fact to work AGAINST a few of them - with a local Democrat - then won despite them.

So for those of us that see a lot of the way the world is getting flushed for a few to get flush, actual criminals hiding at the back of people whose scams were "legalised" by older dodgy deals with legislators that LACKED that integrity . . . . the idea that people in EACH of the "two" parties in the USA * that might win the election COULD break away from the people trying to "work their mouths" - or their minds ! - to kick-ass a bit to clean house . . . . thats a crucial half of the solution.



BUT IT AINT A L L OF IT.
HENCE, get campaigning - for sense in ALL quarters.

*ps !!!!

Sarah Palin- Animal Killer

Sarah Palin is most definately NOT someone to be voting for if you have any compassion.

McCain's VP Pick, Sarah Palin, No Friend to Animals

John McCain Announces Sarah Palin as his running mate
Mario Tama / Getty Images.John McCain has just announced his choice for the Republican VP slot: Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, who is no friend to animals. In 2007, Palin announced a $150 bounty for wolves. Why? Because wolves prey on moose and caribou, two favorite targets for hunters in Alaska. So Palin instituted a program to encourage hunters to kill wolves so that there would be more moose and caribou for hunters to kill. A lawsuit by Defenders of Wildlife resulted in the Alaska Superior Court ruling that the state Department of Fish and Game did not have the authority to institute a bounty program. A state program to shoot wolves and bears from the air continues, and on August 26, 2008, Ballot Measure 2, which would have stopped the aerial gunning of predators, was defeated by state voters.

Palin is also a hunter and a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association.

In addition, Palin has sued the Bush administration to delist polar bears under the Endangered Species Act because the protection of polar bears interferes with drilling for oil and gas. Palin even penned an op-ed for the New York Times, explaining her scientific arguments against protecting polar bears. Isn't it funny how her op-ed doesn't mention drilling for oil?

Needless to say, from an animal rights standpoint, Sarah Palin would be a disastrous VP.
